boss/tigers-and-sheep.git/README.md, branch v0.1.0

docs: Add a docs folder on building, the code's structure, the search and training

2026-11-09T10:32:43Z

Covers building and dependencies, the architecture and game loop, the board representation, the Player and MinimaxPlayer traits, the minimax search, the network and self-play training, benchmarking, and how to add a player. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5

refactor: Drop the neural command in favour of play's -S/-T weights files

2026-11-09T10:00:58Z

-S and -T already accept a weights file, so the neural subcommand was only a shorthand for one of them. Update the README and CLAUDE.md to show the play form instead. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5

feat: Multi-threaded training; play matches every 10 generations

2026-11-09T03:38:13Z

Gradients and losses are computed on rayon's pool in fixed-size chunks summed in order, so the weights are the same on any number of threads. Self-play uses the same pool, and the output shows the training time. The matches against the earlier network and ClaudePlayer now run only every --match-every generations (default 10), against the generation that last played them, read back from its saved file.

feat: Draw by threefold repetition

2026-11-09T03:17:04Z

A position coming up for the third time with the same side to move ends the game as a draw, in the TUI and in training self-play. Players now get the game's earlier boards in pick_move, and the search scores the first repetition on its path as a draw, so a side that is ahead avoids one and a side that is behind seeks one.

feat: Parse the command line with clap

2026-11-09T03:02:43Z

Players are now chosen with --sheep/-S and --tiger/-T (human, claude or a weights file) and --time/-t, instead of by editing main.rs. Every training setting is a train option, and --help covers all commands. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5
